El deslizamiento de ladera es considerado uno de los fenómenos geológicos con mayor destrucción que impactan a la humanidad, llegando a causar grandes pérdidas humanas y materiales. El objetivo del presente trabajo de investigación bibliográfico fue demostrar la eficacia de la aplicación de un sistema de información geográfica (SIG) para el estudio de la susceptibilidad a deslizamiento de laderas a través de mapas susceptibles, para lo cual se desarrolló un análisis sistemático de artículos científicos publicados en revistas científicas como Engineering Geology, Investigaciones Geográficas, TecnoLógicas, Geomorphology, Terra, Revista Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, Revista de Estudios Latinoamericanos sobre Reducción del Riesgo de Desastres, entre otras, ubicadas en bases de datos como SciELO, World Wide Science, Scopus, ScienceDirect, Elsevier, entre las principales. Entre los resultados se tiene, que con la aplicación de un SIG se determina el porcentaje y grado de áreas que presentaran susceptibilidad a deslizamiento a ladera, en la cual se laboró con la metodología empleada por el SIG, por tanto, se concluye que la ejecución de mapas de susceptibilidad a deslizamiento de ladera debería ser de trascendencia debido a que serviría como soporte en la organización de un territorio, asegurando la estabilidad pública y un futuro sostenible.

Abstract. To mark the twentieth anniversary of Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (NHESS), an interdisciplinary and international journal dedicated to the public discussion and open-access publication of high-quality studies and original research on natural hazards and their consequences, we highlight eleven key publications covering major subject areas of NHESS that stood out within the past 20 years. The selected articles represent excellent scientific contributions in the major areas of natural hazards and risks and helped NHESS to become an exceptionally strong journal representing interdisciplinary areas of natural hazards and risks. At its 20th anniversary, we are proud that NHESS is not only used by scientists to disseminate research results and innovative novel ideas but also by practitioners and decision-makers to present effective solutions and strategies for sustainable disaster risk reduction.

El Sistema

Se presenta el diseño de un sistema integrado de gestión de tesauros distribuido y cooperativo denominado iSGAT basado en una arquitectura de base de datos relacional interoperable en la World Wide Web. El sistema permitirá la asignación de descriptores a direcciones de Internet, configurando así un modelo de recuperación de información para la web basado en descriptores. De esta forma, diferentes grupos de trabajo podrán desarrollar unos repositorios de conocimiento previamente indizados, que favorecerán la difusión de los documentos de mayor interés en sus áreas de trabajo. Esto convierte a iSGAT en una herramienta ideal para comunidades virtuales de usuarios dentro del ámbito de la investigación científica y tecnológica. (A)

Abstract. The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) mission is to deliver high-quality global medium-range numerical weather predictions and monitoring of the Earth system to its member states. The modelling and forecasting of natural hazards are an important part of this mission. Challenges in this area include the integration of innovative observations into the Earth system; realistic representations of water, energy and carbon cycles; coupling and initialisation of all Earth system components; adequate representation of uncertainties; supporting the development of user-specific products to enable optimal decision-making under uncertainties; and advances in software engineering. The new ECMWF strategy identified three pillars to sustain its future development (ECMWF, 2021a): science and technology (world-leading weather and Earth system science, cutting-edge technology and computational science), impact (high-quality products fit for purpose, efficient and easy access to products), and people (inspiring and hiring the best experts). Progress in all these areas will need enhanced collaboration with member states and partners across Europe and beyond.
